I was doing some blog hopping before bedtime last night & came across mommies2cents, she had a post about something called "Project Night Night". The name intrigued me so i started reading & I've decided to send some newly purchased items to help! Here is the run down of "Project Night Night" (for more info go HERE).

The bag donated

Get to know me ♥

I'm Leslie, I'm a 25yr old college student with a lot of dreams & hopes to fulfill at least one of those dreams. I'm a single girl living in the midsized town called Wake Forest trying to figure out everything (I don't have life figured out just yet but i like to think i have time) with a chinchilla (Ruppert aka Roo) & a huge imagination. I'm a whimsy, loving, energetic, personal individual. I'm a certified cake decorator (i mainly do wedding cakes. ) , graphic designer & website designer. I think ones individuality is everything, these days you shouldn't be afraid to be yourself. All in all life isn't perfect but it's still great.
